Steve

This lad is absolutely immaculate in his kennel - clean every morning and he is such a gentle soul. He comes into the office regularly and just curls up on the bed, especially loving it if there are other dogs in there.

It was Gold Stars all round in the clean kennel awards today - with an extra special mention for the gorgeous Steve and Magic, yet again all I had to do was straighten one corner of the bed in both kennels - think we are going to have to check the cameras to see if they actually do spend the night in their kennels!!!! Truff Truff had entertained herself overnight by working at her dressing and destroying most of it!! There were bits of vet wrap all over her bed this morning, and she gives you that innocent "Well, I don't know where that came from" look - you just can't be cross with her. Ruth has spoiled her fun now though, as she has put boots on her! It's shaping up to be a busy day at Daybreaks, Laura is fully booked with her Valentine's pamper sessions, and there are lots of appointments in the diary so - I will make my usual wish for some red or green signs by Monday. Have a great weekend one and all, stay safe and well. Angie xx

Over the Rainbow Bridge
Little Stacy came home with me yesterday as she has not been eating very well and had an upset tum. We have stopped her Metacam and she woofed down her food once back at ours! She is a very sweet and quite girl who goes out to her new home at the beginning of March x

Magic

This little fella is a joy. It was great to get him out in the sand run a couple days ago as I was filming him ready for his super star video. He was well behaved and loved a good run about.

Many thanks as always to Angie for opening up and to Karla for doing morning walks and sorting the cats. Laura had bookings for nail clipping for Bertie and a pamper for the gorgeous Padfoot. Turf Truf was limping so Ruth had a look and thinks she has something in her pad so dressed it, later on today she decided to hold her other paw up!! We had no Chris today so Karla and Matthew took it in turns to take the dogs Into the sand run. Thanks too to Suzi who came in and helped with feeding and cleaning the runs and sitting with the dogs and helped keep an eye on Truf Truf who tried to get her dressing off, I managed to do a temporary repair until Ruth looks at it again tomorrow. After a few days off it was nice to be back. Xx

Sparky

Sparky is simply gorgeous! He has been on the waiting list since last September but because the boys sadly take longer to home, it has taken him several months to get to the top of the list. Please, please consider giving one of our fabulous boys their forever home. Xxx Xxx

I met Sparky today and he is a lovely lad. A bit stressed in kennels at the moment, I do hope his forever home comes soon. He will be well looked after at Daybreaks though. Keeping fingers crossed his stay will be a short one xx

Arry (Ares /Tinker)
I’m Homed
Asbo Arry really enjoyed his Valentine's pamper today. He actually jumped into the bath and stood there beautifully, his back legs had a bit of a wobble but this can be caused the warm water relaxing the muscles. Once done he was equally happy to jump back out. He was a good boy with the drier, ear cleaning, nail clipping and teeth scraping, although when Laura finished scraping then used the plaque wipes and finally used the plaque gel he decided to do dog down and dropped to the floor, absolutely nothing wrong just decided it was time to lie down!!!! Nothing like scaring someone. Did wonder that as he was so very good we call him Asbo? Think that just summed it up. He also received his lovely valentine's goody tin with various lovely goodies in....well worth it I say. Thanks Laura, hope he didn't give you too much of a scare!!!!!

Seana, I am so very sorry and heartbroken, I would dearly loved to see Teddy's gorgeous face one last time. He achieved a great age, I know it's no concellation but you gave him a wonderful life. What a good boy Fergal was to cuddle up and make him feel safe, warm and loved. We are thinking of you at this very difficult and sad time. Much love, Jo, Arry, Cooper and Peanut. Rest easy Teddy and watch down on us all. Xxx

Dear Seana I'm so very sorry to hear your lovely little Teddy has gone to Rainbow Bridge. He was such a happy, affectionate, friendly lad. It was always lovely to see him. Xxx How sweet Fergal cuddled up to him today, best friends to the end. Xxx Xxx Teddy had a great life with you; no one could have loved him more. Xxx. Thinking of you both at this terribly sad time and sending lots of love. Kate, Skip, Lyra and Cracker. Xxx

For my wonderful Step Uncle Teddy If I could use my million tears to build a staircase I would build one right up to heaven and bring you back again together with my Daddy and Brother. You have been the best pal and I am glad I got to snuggle up to you today whilst you slipped away. I hope you know how much I loved you. I did try to show you by snuggling up to you as much as I could and always letting you have the treaties first! I will try to be a good boy for Granny but I honestly don't know how I will fare without you. It has been so very hard without Daddy and then Eoghan and now you have gone my life will never be the same. I hope you will wait patiently for me and Granny but until then be healthy, be happy and please remember to look down on us every day before you go and play. lots of snuggles and sniffs. Fergal xxx
